When execute the following command to test clone3 under !CONFIG_TIME_NS:
# make headers && cd tools/testing/selftests/clone3 && make && ./clone3
we can see the following error info:
# [7538] Trying clone3() with flags 0x80 (size 0)
# Invalid argument - Failed to create new process
# [7538] clone3() with flags says: -22 expected 0
not ok 18 [7538] Result (-22) is different than expected (0)
...
# Totals: pass:18 fail:1 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0
This is because if CONFIG_TIME_NS is not set, but the flag
CLONE_NEWTIME (0x80) is used to clone a time namespace, it
will return -EINVAL in copy_time_ns().
If kernel does not support CONFIG_TIME_NS, /proc/self/ns/time
will be not exist, and then we should skip clone3() test with
CLONE_NEWTIME.
With this patch under !CONFIG_TIME_NS:
# make headers && cd tools/testing/selftests/clone3 && make && ./clone3
...
# Time namespaces are not supported
ok 18 # SKIP Skipping clone3() with CLONE_NEWTIME
...
# Totals: pass:18 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:1 error:0

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
